Exploring the application of dual‐energy CT to discriminate sediment facies in a varved sequence

The Depositional Record
Dual‐energy X‐ray computed tomography consists of imaging objects using two incident X‐ray beams of different energy to distinguish the different compounds within a sample based on their density (electron density, ρe) and elemental composition (effective

The Theory of Diffraction Tomography [PDF]

arXiv, 2015
Tomography is the three-dimensional reconstruction of an object from images taken at different angles. The term classical tomography is used, when the imaging beam travels in straight lines through the object. This assumption is valid for light with short wavelengths, for example in x-ray tomography.

Automatic skin flash optimization in breast and chestwall VMAT with static angle modulated ports: Effect of HU and flash margin size on plan quality and robustness

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Skin flash is typically added to breast and chestwall plans to ensure robust target coverage in the presence of respiratory motion, anatomic changes, and small setup uncertainties. Adding skin flash in volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) plans is an iterative and manual process.

Multi-view polarimetric scattering cloud tomography and retrieval of droplet size [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Tomography aims to recover a three-dimensional (3D) density map of a medium or an object. In medical imaging, it is extensively used for diagnostics via X-ray computed tomography (CT). Optical diffusion tomography is an alternative to X-ray CT that uses multiply scattered light to deliver coarse density maps for soft tissues.

Anomalous scaling law for noise variance and spatial resolution in differential phase contrast computed tomography [PDF]

, 2010
In conventional absorption based x-ray computed tomography (CT), the noise variance in reconstructed CT images scales with spatial resolution following an inverse cubic relationship. Without reconstruction, in x-ray absorption radiography, the noise variance scales as an inverse square with spatial resolution.

Assessing HyperSight iterative CBCT for dose calculation in online adaptive radiotherapy for pelvis and breast patients compared to synthetic CT

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose/objectives Recent technological advancements have increased efficiency for clinical deliverability of online‐adaptive‐radiotherapy (oART). Previous cone‐beam‐computed‐tomography (CBCT) generations lacked the ability to provide reliable Hounsfield‐units (HU), thus requiring oART workflows to rely on synthetic‐CT (sCT) images derived ...

Synchrotron‐source micro‐x‐ray computed tomography for examining butterfly eyes

Ecology and Evolution
Comparative anatomy is an important tool for investigating evolutionary relationships among species, but the lack of scalable imaging tools and stains for rapidly mapping the microscale anatomies of related species poses a major impediment to using ...

Evaluating the use of diagnostic CT with flattening filter free beams for palliative radiotherapy: Dosimetric impact of scanner calibration variability

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Palliative radiotherapy comprises a significant portion of the radiation treatment workload. Volumetric‐modulated arc therapy (VMAT) improves dose conformity and, in conjunction with flattening filter free (FFF) delivery, can decrease treatment times, both of which are desirable in a population with a high probability of retreatment ...

Ten recommendations for scanning foraminifera by X-ray computed tomography [PDF]

Journal of Micropalaeontology
Marine sediment cores uniquely provide a temporally high-resolution and well-preserved archive of foraminifera fossils, which are essential for understanding environmental, ecological, and evolutionary dynamics over geological timescales.
